Although it's the least menacing type of hepatitis, the virus strain known as HAV should not be underestimated. This program focuses on the causes and typical treatments for Hepatitis A and guides viewers through the different levels of danger that the virus poses to victims. Medical experts—including Dr. Harold Margolis, Former Chief of the CDC Hepatitis Branch, Dr. Jay Keystone of the University of Toronto, and travel medicine specialist Dr. Bradley Connor—explain the basic science behind HAV infections, describe common symptoms, and spell out preventive and palliative strategies. Also, a traveling businessman describes his frustrating experiences with Hepatitis A.
